Taxonomic remark Zezina (2010) suspected that the occurrence of D. lamellosa Broderip from off south-western Africa (Walvis Bay, Namibia) as reported by d'Hondt (1976), may represent a new taxa, and she indicated this by listing "Discinisca lamellosa sensu Hondt, 1976" separate to "Discinisca lamellosa (Broderip, 1834)". However d'Hondt (1976) never described this as a separate species, and the taxa is more likely to be attributable to D. tenuis (Sowerby) which occurs along the Namibian coast. [details]
